On the other hand, the incorporation of BGRFs into a rice dough system caused a distinct increase in the thermo-mechanical
Mixolab properties of rice flour, probably contributing to the formation of a rigid dough structure. It
could be closely correlated with the enhanced extensibility and firmness of BGRF-incorporated rice
noodles. Moreover, BGRFs played a positive role in improving the cooking qualities of rice noodles by
significantly reducing their swelling index and cooking loss.
